According to Pavlik’s hometown newspaper,The Youngstown Vindicator, Pavlik pleaded guilty to one count of failure to control a vehicle, another count of failure to report an accident and had to pay a $150.00 fine for each count for a total of $300.00

The drunk driving charge was dropped by judge Scott Hunter after Pavlik’s defense attorney, Damian Billak, contended that there was a lack of evidence since there was no sobriety or breathalyzer test conducted.

Pavlik, who turned 30 on April 4, is coming off last month’s second-round knockout of Aaron Jaco, this, after having left his native Youngstown, Ohio, and split with career-long trainer Jack Loew, in mid-January to train in Oxnard, Calif., under Robert Garcia.

“We knew that was going to happen,” said Top Rank CEO, Bob Arum. “So he’s on his way back to Oxnard, and I think that he will be there tonight. He’s ready to go for June 8.”
